Description
Delicious grilled halloumi wraps filled with fresh vegetables and a creamy sauce, perfect for a quick meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 block (8 ounces) halloumi cheese
- 1 tomato, sliced into wedges
- 1/2 English cucumber, halved and thinly sliced
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 clove garlic, grated or finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh herbs, such as mint, dill, and/or parsley
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- Salt and pepper
- 4 pitas, or wraps of choice
- 1 cup hummus
- 2 cups lettuce leaves
- 1/4 cup garlic sauce (optional)
Instructions
- Place the halloumi cheese on a cutting board and, using a sharp knife, cut it into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Rub or brush both sides of the halloumi slices with olive oil.
- In a large grill pan or grill on medium-high heat, add the slices of halloumi, working in batches if needed, and cook for 1-2 minutes per side or until golden brown grill marks appear. Transfer the grilled halloumi to a plate and continue until all of the halloumi is cooked.
- As the halloumi cooks, in a large bowl, add the sliced tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and fresh herbs, and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, and toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Set aside.
- Optional: Warm the pitas in the microwave for 15-30 seconds.
- Next, assemble the wraps. Place the pitas on a cutting board or plate, spread a 1/4 of hummus on top, and then top with lettuce, tomato and cucumber salad, and grilled halloumi slices.
- The halloumi wraps can be enjoyed immediately, and any leftover grilled halloumi can be cooled and stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
